In the mid-1970s, David Kolb published works thatcategorized human learning styles and how they respond to various types of experientiallearning.2 At least three out of Kolb’s four learning styles benefitted most through “concreteexperience” and “active experimentation.”2 Furthermore, Schumann, et. al., reported that manystudents who leave engineering do so because of a lack of interest in the topics.3 In 2010, in aneffort to increase retention rates among engineering programs, the National Science Foundationsponsored a project called “Engage.”4 One of the three objectives of this project is to increaseretention by “Integrating into coursework everyday examples in engineering (E3s).”4 Also, asampling of recent papers that studied the

In this project, which is part of a larger investigation into high performance design teams, weexplored the use of graphing and other visual techniques for recording designers’ perceptions oftheir design processes and products.

, foster motivation and psychological growth. These psychological needs areautonomy, competence, and relatedness. Autonomy involves being and acting in harmony withone's integrated sense of self and values as well as feeling that one has ownership over one’sactions. In educational environments, autonomy is visible when learning environments offerlearners opportunities for choice, self-direction, and flexibility rather than imposing strict or rigiddirection and demands. Learners are thus motivated when they have choice in their academicpathways, courses, learning topics, classroom projects, etcetera based on their interests andaspirations.

TechnologyDr. Eric J. AlmDr. Alison F Takemura, US Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute Alison loves wading into a good science story. Her first was her MIT doctoral thesis project, unlocking the gastronomical genome of a Vibrio bacterium. For some of the Vibrio’s meals, she collected seaweed from the rocky, Atlantic coastline at low tide. (Occasionally, its waves swept her off her feet.) During grad school, Alison was also a fellow in MIT’s Biological Engineering Communication Lab. Helping students share their science with their instructors and peers, she began to crave the ability to tell the stories of other scientists, and the marvels they discover, to a broader audience. So after graduating in 2015 with a
